    to all the new Astros fans who joined this site welcome. Many commercial websites are shutting down their message boards for two reasons one use is going down because of cyber bulling keeps many passive people away so only the hard core remain most people don't like having there name dragged in the mud for some very small reason like a misspelled word the second reason is the threat of litigation somebody is offended by a comment they might sue the company that host the web site who wants to deal with it

    Didn't even know that MLB ran a board... relied on Crawfish Boxes and Clutchfans for baseball talk. Used to check astrosdaily.com but that site never got into the next decade.

    Thanks. So I take it you are not a believer in Ken “The Sultan of Squat” Giles.

    Thanks. I am a 66 year old white male who has made it through almost 49 years of marriage to the same lady. I am not offended by the word “idiot.”
